# Nifty little panorama I did


Click for bigger (405 kb)

So I spent a year and a half learning Chinese once, and then after I finished that I went to china for a couple weeks (back in late 2009) on my own to make sure I did it right. I did and all was well. :D

Anyhow, I was going through some of the pics of my camera when I found a few in a series. I remembered that at the time I meant to make them into a nifty little panorama thing but I'd totally forgotten to until just today. So, I threw them into the panorama software that my camera came with, and this is what came out. There are a few spots that are a little obvious in terms of where the seam was, but I think it's altogether a nice pic.

What you don't see in it though is, behind me, there is a 70ft tall buddha statue.

(coords of pic are 37.566762,120.471545 in case you were curious)

# Oh aye,
it really was shit, I just bunged a duplicate layer on top, used the clone tool to roughly remove the seams and then used a reduced opacity eraser to thin it out a little.

# very nice
so where is it?
Also it you stitch it to a single image, you could probably smooth it out a bit, no?

From the look of the seams (which aren't that bad) you might get better results with Hugin (http://hugin.sourceforge.net/).

TA for the tip, I will check it out. I love me some panoramas, so that could come in handy!

# Did this also

But the cam'ra has a mode especially made for this (and a provided software).
